Fishman et al. (2001) build a genetic linkage map of an interspecific cross between M. guttatus and M.nasutus. At that time, the \(F_2\) mapping population used (N=526) were genotyped for 174 markers. Based on this study, the authors have found a genetic map of 2011-2096 cM Kosambi size, containing 174 marker loci distribuited over 14 linkage group.
Here we incorporate new genomic information onto the Fishman’s map in order to update the new loci information. By using a new data set of the same population with 418 markers, we founded XXX new loci and expanded the maps to a lenght of 2933.95 cM Kosambi.
